The goal of the Cooperation Centre for Applied Sciences (KONTAKT) at HTW Berlin is to transfer knowledge and technical expertise into practice. Functioning as a central point of information and advice for companies interested in cooperation, KONTAKT is an important player in the transfer activities of HTW Berlin. The KONTAKT team

• acts as a central point of contact and advice for companies and other parties interested in accessing scientific expertise and in initiating and implementing research and transfer-related cooperation partnerships.
• handles enquiries from companies and organisations and puts them in touch with appropriate experts at HTW Berlin.
• provides support with setting up research cooperation partnerships with HTW Berlin, for example by organising bilateral meetings, workshops, visits to laboratories and companies, and advising on funding for transfer projects.
• organises events such as the annual science symposium which presents the university’s expertise and wide-ranging subject areas to (potential) cooperation partners.
